I have a laptop that I dual boot with windows and gentoo. My gentoo
installation has software suspend working. When I run the hibernate
script the system hibernates and then powers down. When I press the
power button on my laptop I am then presented with my lilo boot menu
and I can choose Gentoo, and resume my session.
Now when I boot into windows and I suspend my session...the session
suspends and my system powers off. When I press the power button the
system automatically resumes my windows session and I am never
presented with the lilo menu. Is there a change that I could make to
my windows suspend options so that when I press the power button I am
presented with the lilo boot menu and I can choose to resume either
windows or gentoo.
Thanks for any input that you may have, and I apologize if this is too
off topic for this list.

When Windows _SUSPENDS_ (we're not talking hibernate right?), it never
relaay stops running. It shuts down the display and the hard drives and
sort of goes to sleep. So when you "power" back up, it simply resumes.
It does not reboot.
